Dimension of space spanned by minors

37 Views Asked by At

Let $M_{n,m}$ denote the set of $n\times m$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{C}$. The set of $k\times k$ minors are homogeneous polynomial functions of degree $k$ in the entries of the matrix. What is the dimension of the vector space they span inside the vector space of degree $k$ polynomials?
